Global schedule reliability fell in July for the first time since January, according to the latest Global Liner Performance (GLP) report from Sea-Intelligence. Reliability dropped 2.2 percentage points month-on-month to 65.2%. Despite the dip, performance remains stronger year-on-year, up 13 percentage points.
Average delays for late vessel arrivals also worsened, rising to 4.68 days.
Among carriers, Maersk led with 80.6% reliability, followed by Hapag-Lloyd at 74%. Most others ranged between 60% and 70%, while HMM came in last at 50.7%.
On the alliance front, Gemini Cooperation topped the rankings with 92% reliability across all arrivals. MSC followed at 76.5%, while Premier Alliance trailed at 54.6%. The Ocean Alliance scored 69.4%.
Sea-Intelligence noted the introduction of a new measure earlier this year, covering both all arrivals and trade-specific arrivals, to reflect the restructured alliances.
